Question

    Priya bought a gadget at 40% discount on its listed price

    and later sold it by offering a 20% discount on the listed price. What was her profit percentage?
    A 25.25% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 10.10% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 12.12% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 33.33% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ;
    Let the listed (marked) price of the gadget be Rs. '100x'

    So, cost price for Priya = 100x × 0.60 = Rs. '60x'

    And selling price for Priya = 100x × 0.80 = Rs. '80x'

    So, profit percentage = {(80x - 60x)/60x} × 100 = 33.33%
